We men should work on handling rejection. I learned it the hard way, but shouldn't be like that.

Why the flying fuck is it censored? Do advertisers really have our balls in a vice that much? It says bitch slut.

Because sometimes people want to...?

Bitchslut is going to be my new catchphrase

"Aw bitchslut, I just missed the bus!"

"Bitchslut, Scoob, I'm glad that he's frozen in there and we're out here"

There's advertising on Lemmy?

Do people use the platform? Yes.

Swap sexes/genders.

Exact same thing plays out, with slightly different wording in panel 3.

Probably the woman accuses the man of being gay, broke, and/or busted, and/or 'probably having a small dick anyway', possibly also remarking on their asserted status as a virgin/incel/creep.

The woman is ... roughly as likely to post a tiktok of this encounter, aimed at socially destroying the refusing man's reputation, as the man in the original situation is to respond to being refused with additional, actual physical violence.

Both cishet sexes and genders objectify the refuser's sex/gender in a mocking/insulting way, in their indignant retort.

That.

That's about what I expect.

That immature and insecure people are unnecessarily cruel when their egos are damaged, and are roughly equally likely to escalate their indignant response to something more serious and damaging, its just that the manner in which they would perform that escalation differs.

How often does this situation lead to homicide when the genders are swapped?

ive seen one that is a poem creep, he was on the sidewalk giving poems solely to women only.

I've seen enough other dudes have interactions with women similar to what this comic depicts that I'm not going to bitch about it just because I've never responded that way to rejection. There's lots of trash people in this world.

Women should just be honest... and then women and men should work together to correct anyone who fails to respect their honesty.
